Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this project is to evaluate the current methods and materials that are being used in the reading and study skills sections of a college developmental reading course supported by the Act 101 Program of Pennsylvania and Student Support Services, a federal TRIO Program. Both programs help under prepared students prepare for college. Further, it will provide research-based suggestions that can help instructors select methods and materials that may improve reading abilities for students in the program. The recommendations will have particular applicability since instructors for this program change frequently and are often part-time faculty with little experience or education in teaching developmental reading to college students. To guide the recommendations offered, research literature is used to synthesize practices that often improve the reading abilities of developmental students and apply them to this particular program. These practices can be used for faculty development and to help new instructors become familiar with the methods and materials that have utility for college developmental readers. The project is presented in three chapters. The first chapter contains a literature review that identifies several important areas of research that examine the nature of college developmental reading and look at theories concerning methods for improving students' reading abilities. The second chapter will describe the developmental reading methods and materials presently being used in this program and the content and instructional strategies that presently support the formation of reading abilities. The third chapter presents materials and methods that tend to improve developmental students' reading abilities and suggestions for how they might be applied to this program.

Download or read book Developmental Reading Achievement and Persistence of African American Community College Students written by M. Eileen Morelli and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2006-06 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ex post facto study was used to compare community college transcripts of African American students who participated in a developmental reading course at a multi-campus, urban community college and those who declined to participate in the developmental reading program. The study examined 513 records to determine if participation in a developmental reading course in a community college improved achievement and persistence for African American college students. Results discuss the positive relationship of overall and third semester achievement to enrollment in a developmental reading course as shown in the student QPA. Neither enrollment in a developmental reading course nor reading level was related to persistence as measured by the number of semesters enrolled in college.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developmental evaluation (DE) offers a powerful approach to monitoring and supporting social innovations by working in partnership with program decision makers. In this book, eminent authority Michael Quinn Patton shows how to conduct evaluations within a DE framework. Patton draws on insights about complex dynamic systems, uncertainty, nonlinearity, and emergence. He illustrates how DE can be used for a range of purposes: ongoing program development, adapting effective principles of practice to local contexts, generating innovations and taking them to scale, and facilitating rapid response in crisis situations. Students and practicing evaluators will appreciate the book's extensive case examples and stories, cartoons, clear writing style, "closer look" sidebars, and summary tables. Provided is essential guidance for making evaluations useful, practical, and credible in support of social change.
